Making a Gardner Gun
The Gardner Gun is one of an entire generation of all-but-forgotten* manually operated proto-machine guns. GunLab has begun a series of posts documenting the effort of one Papa Joe (who receives a regular mention there) to reconstruct a Gardner Gun from scratch. Since no blueprints are available, he had to track down an existing Gardner and take precise measurements of every dimension of every part, create his own (electronic) prints, and then construct each piece himself. As if that wasn’t enough, Papa Joe decided that his Gardner would be scaled down and chambered for .22 LR!
